People Central on Mental Testing and Recruitment
People Central L.T.D is a Hawkes Bay company concentrating on psychometric testing and assessment. A normal shopper will be an employer who is looking to hire a staff member.
"The employer either brings us in at the beginning of the process or, thanks to a niggling feeling that they are missing something, we come in at the end", says Steve Evans, Director and Creator of People Central. "Having a unbiased third party on the selection panel provides great insight for the employer, specifically when the third party is qualified in psychometric testing!".
In Evans experience, most employers hire persons based on their capability, and fire them on the grounds of their personality, customarily at material financial expense to the employer and emotional cost to the employee. Evans claims "Psychometric testing falls into two main categories, personality questions measure aspects of personality and talent tests measure intellectual and reasoning capacity. When referring to recruitment, capability testing is excellent for working out if an applicant has the core capabilities necessary for fulfillment in a job. Many bosses don't realise that it is a proven fact that interviews and reference checks alone don't cut the mustard when talking of determining someone's ability to accomplish the job. "
The types of psychometric testing People Central counsel would be restricted to the job, but Evans asserts that a common ability test would cover: oral and numeric reasoning, abstract reasoning, clerical accuracy and ability to check, commercial proficiency, and technical ability. Personality tests identify applicants whose behavior aligns with behaviours linked with fulfillment in a selected business. When undertaking psychometric testing for personality, the following factors can be identified: whether a candidate is probably going to worth and support a business culture, competencies and desires; how they are probably to engage with team-mates, clients, and providers; and how they are probably to handle the stresses and strains of the job.As for that petty feeling, Evans understands that companies can feel like they are in a steamer situation, "Regularly there is a cut off point approaching, and a large amount of work to be done, otherwise bosses feel that there's a low pool of talents available locally. "
Evans urges bosses to bring in a professional to do psychometric testing, he says "The final result is going to be invaluable for the employer".
